    A chocolate ticked tabby tom with amber eyes. His dappled brown fur resembles the shade of a muddy riverbank, carrying a faint auburn tint in the sunlight. His fur has a coarse texture, wildly spiked up randomly along his coat. Darker freckles dust across his cheeks, nose bridge, shoulders, hips, and tail base. His ears are also darker, typically pricked in curiosity. Two spots mimicking eyebrows give him the expression of constant scowling until his lips peel back to reveal a sharp, almost too-wide grin. A narrow wavering stripe of darker brown additionally runs down his spine, while his fur lightens around his chest, tail, and paws. He has glazed amber eyes, with a dark mischievous glint to them, and can occasionally be seen as honey-brown in varied lighting. Dark circles border his lower eyelids.

    He is significantly smaller than other cats his age, his growth stunted from a bout of sickness as a kitten. His ribs poke out from beneath his wiry flanks, despite his gluttonous diet. He has a terrible slouch at the best of times, though can easily skulk around with a silent step.

    — His left brow was split during an accident as a kitten, in which he slipped while playing outside and bashed against a rock.
    For the future... More than ⅔ of his tail has been viciously torn off, with only a stub remaining. Notched left ear. Crooked nose bridge from a break.
    — No current injuries.
    — Slightly near-sighted, leading to him frequently squinting and clumsy hunting.

    It would be easy to look at Brookpaw from afar and deem him as nothing more than another immature trickster, always scheming in one form or another. Indeed, there is a mischievous glint in his eyes, though a hidden depth can be glimpsed behind the gleam, one that can be easily underestimated. Brookpaw is cunning, relying more on wit over anything else due to his scrawny stature. Some may call it street smarts, others might label him as an outside-the-box thinker. As a scavenger by nature, he can be crafty and practical if the situation calls for it; he could be compared to a swiss-army knife in this regard, true to the resourceful values of Shadowclan. He's additionally opportunistic, always scouting for the best chance. He is just as eccentric as anyone else that exists outside of the box, often purposely trying to unnerve his company through shock humor, leading to some jokes made in poor taste. He has a sort of charm about him, brought about by his tendencies to feign innocence and naivety. With this, he can become concerningly manipulative, capable of persuading people with a few white lies, flattering words, and sometimes crocodile tears. However, he rarely uses this for anything more than short-term gain without sinister intent, like being allowed to skip chores or having someone else’s meal. Despite how easy he finds it to wrap people around his paws, he is equally susceptible to his own tactics turned against him. He’s a pushover at his core, even if he’ll whine about it the entire time. He’s an enduring fighter, able to push himself off the ground after being repeatedly kicked down; once cornered, he’s as vicious as a trapped animal, though vastly prefers retreating to lick his wounds over fighting when he knows he’ll lose. He can be terribly lazy unless dragged out of whatever comfy spot he’s turned into a nest.

    Despite his antics, he is deeply insecure and anxious, often inwardly fretting over inconsequential things as a perfectionist. Some find him annoyingly clingy, as though he's desperate to keep any friends he has. While loyal to a fault, he can just as easily misunderstand intentions and flip his attitude toward someone on a whim. He has little impulse control, which majorly takes the form of compulsive theft; he has gathered a considerable hoard of stolen belongings over the years, though many items hold no value and are barely missed. He can be overly emotional, often resulting in the insult of "crybaby" being thrown around. Brookpaw holds grudges for a long time and can be quite vengeful if he's in a particularly nasty mood. He's frequently bored, occupying his mind with mindless entertainment when he loses interest in something, though he finds little fulfillment. While his usual self relies on humor, he does have the capacity to be serious, though these jarring moments are fleeting. He's largely food-motivated, being somewhat of a glutton. Since he finds solace in the great outdoors, he's frequently grimy or disheveled, often tracking mud wherever he goes. He's considerably athletic despite his lack of muscle, due to high levels of activity, and finds it easy to scrabble up to high places. He can also be fairly stealthy, sneaking around with little noise and sticking to the shadows - this behavior remains even when he isn’t intentionally lurking. When he begins to mature, he will start to leave his childish ways behind, instead becoming surprisingly empathetic. While he never lets any vulnerable information about himself slip, he has an affinity towards gossip and rumors, though mostly to satiate his own curiosity rather than to spread it with others. All in all, Brookpaw is an unpredictable force, who prefers to keep his enemies close.

    Yet with all the expectations for him to be smart and competent, he sure can be a real dumbass.

    Mannerisms: Casual to most, except those with authority. Fidgety, often playing with whatever random scrap on the ground.
    Interests: Rumors and stories, especially those of the scary kind. Pranks, though rarely harmful. Collecting anything that others would call trash, including twoleg litter.
    Fears: Rejection and loneliness.

NETTLEPAW of WINDCLAN
you pour your life down the rifle's spiral

unknown.png
  • unknown.png

    Nettlepaw
    NettleNettlekitNettlescar
    Nettle- : a plant with jagged, stinging leaves and small white flowers. used to describe a solitary cat, often prickly at the thought of any interaction. named for his long fur spiking up since he was a kitten.
    -Paw : to signify his apprentice-hood.
    ↳ Nettle
    — Cis Male ()
    ↳ He, him
    ↳ Unknown preferences
    Apprentice in Windclan
    ↳ Wary of outside clans for the time being, though not hostile.

  • unknown.png

    A lilac tom with high white and grey-blue eyes. He has mousy grey fur, broken up by large patches of white most prominently on his underside, legs, and face. The white markings create a split of color on his face, leaving one-quarter of his face still colored, as well as his ears and the top of his head. As for his legs, only his back left paw remains untouched by the white patches. His tousled fur, while downy in texture when felt against the grain, often appears windswept and pointed along his extremities, earning him his name. His ear tips and tail tip are slightly darker than the rest of his grey fur, as well as his nose bridge. His features are rounded with youth, though his muzzle is beginning to narrow like that of a full-grown cat. A shy smile rarely appears on his face, more often than not replaced with a morose, thoughtful expression. His eyes are a dull blue, faded in color yet with a hidden intelligence behind them.

    Standard of other cats in his clan, he has a lithe build, yet remains on the short side. He is skinny for his age, with his ribs concerningly jutting out from beneath his longer pelt, though he will frequently assure others not to worry about that. His fur, though not as feathery as other longhairs, grows a winter coat every leaf-bare, at which point he becomes almost entirely engulfed by his own fluff.

    — Several long scratches cross his face, mostly along his cheeks and muzzle, and reach down to his throat. Missing right eye, leaving an empty socket and scarring around it. Claw marks across his chest, left shoulder, and lower back. Broken right ear cartilage, causing it to flop over and have deafness on that side. Missing top right canine tooth.
    For the future... no planned scars.
    — No current injuries.

    (+) patient, enduring, understanding (/) independent, solemn, overthinking (-) anxious, stubborn, gloomy.
    The first impression of Nettlepaw leaves much to be desired, to say the least. He appears as a scraggly youth, too weak to accomplish much on his own for the moment. A cloud of gloom follows him around, earning him the status of a severe pessimist ― though he prefers the label of a realist. Initially a push-over for the sake of avoiding conflict, he often lets others walk all over him. He has about as much confidence as a wilted stalk of grass, easily trampled by those bolder than him, and equally easy to forget about. Yet behind his sullen surface, a quiet intelligence lies, constantly analyzing and contemplating. He rarely would use this intellect against others, instead favoring the philosophical side of thought. Critically analyzing his surroundings, he takes the time to think before acting, though this frequently leads to indecision. He tries to always remain considerate of others in his decision-making, with himself as a low priority. He can be a strategic thinker as needed, as well as able to memorize a variety of things with ease. This can lead to him speaking in a mature manner, often with a vocabulary comparable to excessive poetry. He greatly prefers to just do as he's told and rarely voices any opinion, yet those who grow close to him can discover he has more than a few snarky or sarcastic retorts to share. Fiercely protective of those that do manage to bypass his walls, there is little he wouldn't do to ensure their safety. In addition, he has a knack for reading others' true intentions, though he rarely recognizes this as more than a gut feeling. He is a hard worker at heart, willing to wear himself down to the bone if it means that someone will be proud of him. Because of this, he can be surprisingly determined, and even stubborn, when it comes down to it.

    Insecurities eat away at him like termites to wood, leaving him with little self-esteem regarding almost anything about himself. He could nitpick every aspect of himself for hours, ranging from his appearance to his talents and back again. His paranoia about how he is viewed often distorts his reality, with him constantly making mountains out of molehills in any potentially disastrous situation. He avoids any type of confrontation like the plague, even if it means suffering on his behalf. However, he is prone to questioning any authority and its motivations, even that of a higher power, though he keeps his doubts to himself. He can find himself in the role of contrarian all too often, opposing popular opinion and outcasting himself. It's easy to startle him, often spurring several moments of panic before he settles down. He takes everything too seriously, worrying over minor details and fretting himself into an early grave. Occasionally, he might smirk at a joke or two, but most humor is lost on him. This can lead to him being intimidating to befriend, if at all; currently, his social circle only includes a few other cats. He is quick to forgive in most cases but rarely forgets a slight against him or an owed favor. While not the greatest at conversation, he is more than willing to listen to friends, and even offer advice from time to time.

    Mannerisms: Pauses to think between sentences, hides his paws with his tail
    Interests: Lone walks through the moorland, sometimes at night. Story-telling or creating descriptive rhymes, mumbled to himself when he's alone.
    Fears: Failure and public embarrassment.

    Leechpaw

    Leech- : an aquatic bloodsucking parasite, dwelling in the murk of rivers and lakes. fitting for a cat that survives off the life of others, regardless of the harm it brings. named for his sleek black fur, according to him.

  • unknown.png

    A black tom with low white and light blue eyes. His fur is entirely raven black, save for his white front paws, which extend up to mid-arm. His fur lightens during the transition to his front sock markings. His fur could be sleek and long, with an oily sheen like any Riverclanner, if not for its matting that causes it to appear curled and disheveled. His ears are taller than normal, often garnering teasing nicknames, while his tail drags along the ground, only rarely emoting. His face, while still growing, is narrow and angular with a long snout, though this is partially hidden by his fur. While expressionless with a neutral frown, for the most part, he can shift between a variety of faces for respective emotions, even if each one is forced. His eyes are a piercing light blue, like chips of pale ice compared to the rest of his dark body.

    He is much taller than other cats in his clan, with his lanky legs allowing him to tower over other apprentices his age. Concerningly thin, he resembles a walking skeletal shadow more than anything else. While he can swim, he is not built for much of anything else, lacking the skill required to hunt and fight with ease like other cats. He can also be sickly at times, though nothing more serious than the common cold.

    — A long curving slash across his face, from his right eyelid, over his nose bridge, and down his left cheek.
    No planned scars.
    — No current injuries.

    (+) intelligent, levelheaded, logical (/) quiet, skeptical, deadpan (-) irritable, morbid, unempathetic.
    Many tend to avoid Leechpaw and for good reason. His demeanor can be described in the simplest terms as outright unnerving. He is a particularly quiet young cat, rarely speaking if not addressed first, and staring blankly at all who are near. He can be irritable, with hackles bristling in annoyance at the slightest offense. Otherwise, he remains almost entirely stoic, keeping any emotions reserved internally on the rare occasion he isn't numb. What he lacks in physical skill, he compensates with a high intellect and an endless aptitude for knowledge. While he doesn't necessarily flaunt his wit, he does hold a sense of pride regarding it. His ego is prone to inflating with the slightest bit of validation, giving him a narcissistic edge at times. It often seems as though he only considers himself, which may very well be true. On top of his dangerous pride, his empathy levels are far below normal standards, leading to him finding it difficult to relate to others. When paired with his morbid curiosity for dissecting the unknown world around him, the only factor keeping him from quite literally poking at corpses are basic social constructs and repulsed onlookers. He will prove to be extremely manipulative as he matures, currently learning how to warp himself to gain the favor of others for his goals. Beyond his facades, his few consistent traits are his cynicism, bitterness, and a penchant for dry sarcasm. Most of his interactions with others vary from cat to cat, due to him mimicking whoever he speaks with in an attempt to blend in as much as possible. His outward opinions can be wildly different depending on his company, shifting between sides while he himself is largely indifferent. He is pointedly blunt with his words, preferring to cut to the chase no matter how delicate the subject is. In his private time, he often practices facial expressions in water reflections, in order to don the perfect ones for every possible situation. Regardless of his oddities, he remains a steadfast worker, though can easily be lost in his work and his thoughts in the process. While efficient, he refuses to be anything less than organized. At the end of the day, there is little that can stop him from chasing his goals, regardless of the impact on others.

    He is aware that he cannot connect with others on an emotional level, and follows moral codes simply to stay out of trouble. This causes an acute sense of hollow loneliness, despite his independence and discomfort around others. He remains fascinated by how the world functions, feeling a need to apply logic to everything in order to understand it. He heavily doubts any higher power because of this, struggling to find rational explanations for any of Starclan's miracles, and at the very least, questioning most of their messages. Levelheaded and collected under pressure, his calculating nature stays intact even in a blind panic. He is difficult to scare or intimidate, with the most reaction being indifference towards what might unnerve everyone else. If he sets out to do anything, he will strive for perfection no matter the task. He has no malicious intent beneath his otherwise concerning lack of empathy, though some might incorrectly label him as villainous or cruel. In reality, this deficit is a double-edged blade, allowing him to act without bias or irrationale. He can be a good option to vent to simply because he never tries to pry or judge others, as well as being a skilled observer. As he ages, he will become gradually more confident and patient, speaking with others more and more. While his entire outward persona is fake, he still makes an effort to be a good person and helpful towards his clan.

    Mannerisms: Never smiles with his eyes creasing, rubs the top of his paw with the other when nervous.
    Interests: Studying plants and their uses, including poisons. Observing the internal anatomy of prey, though most might call this playing with his food.
    Fears: Fire and his father.

    A red ticked tabby with high white and mismatched eyes. His fur is an almost obnoxious shade of orange-red, commonly earning him the nickname of 'ginger' and the like. Darker stripes close to the color of drying blood extend from one running down his back, though soon break up into dappled markings that only reconnect as bands around his legs. His fur lightens like any other tabby around his underside and legs. His red patterned fur is harshly broken up by a large splash of white across his right face, overtaking most of his muzzle yet not reaching his right ear. This white extends down to his chest, as well as unevenly dipping his paws. His fur is short, yet unruly in some places, even if he tries to slick it back. His eyes are perhaps the most jarring feature about him: his right is a pale faded blue, while his left is a warm chestnut brown. Both are typically squinted in suspicion or half-lidded in disinterest.

    He is considerably scrawny, only barely reaching average cat height, and is quite lithe. While his nose is sharply pointed, his cheeks and face still remain rounded from his youth. Beneath his fur, a wiry layer of muscle lies, providing him the strength to endure many battles. He sometimes forgets to take care of himself, though never longer than a day or two. He rarely straightens up from a slouch, as though he carries the weight of the world on his shoulders.

    — Deep gash across the left side of his chest, over his heart. Miscellaneous clawmarks on his left shoulder, right forearm, and left front paw. Two notches missing from his right outer ear.
    No planned scars.
    — No current injuries.
    — Afflicted with undiagnosed Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.

    (+) sympathetic, reliable, enduring (/) skittish, distracted, indecisive (-) simpleminded, cynical, distrustful.
    From first glance, Sam is nothing more than a bad-tempered and headstrong loner, rarely anything but secluded and silent. With how skittish he is, many question how he even exists within a group; he seems to be paranoid of everything becoming a potential threat, leading to his hesitance when encountering the unfamiliar. This cautious nature isn’t only a detriment to his social life, however, since his vigilance and wariness has saved his, and others’, skins more than once. Sam is quick to react, either as the result of startling or tensed reflexes, yet he’s equally quick to assume conclusions. His mistrust of other people runs deep, to the point of him preferring to work alone most often. When he is forced to interact, he can seem painfully awkward, never making eye contact and fidgeting. He’s cynical and bitter, voicing his disdain for many topics ranging from the lack of convenience to his disbelief in Starclan.

    Yet when he’s around those who have befriended him despite his barriers, his nervousness fades into a relaxed demeanor, even participating in lighthearted banter or teasing. He most often delves into inappropriate jokes, taking on a crude sense of humor. Additionally a complete flirt, he is promiscuous and unafraid to admit to it, though this is only a result of his upbringing and the company he once shared. He isn’t one to lie to a friend, either, and will bluntly call people out point-blank. With these friends, a previously-concealed empathy resurfaces, showing itself in his immediate concern when anyone is upset or hurt. He can be surprisingly caring when he believes someone needs his help, and will go out of his way to soothe them - if that includes beating up the offender, then so be it. There is little he wouldn’t do for the sake of those he trusts and loves, and this self-sacrificial nature borders on reckless at times. When he isn’t acting on impulse, however, he tends to be terribly indecisive. He relies on outside opinion for a majority of his beliefs, acting like a sponge in that regard. He’s easily convinced with the right words, making him a prime target for potential manipulation. He also can be persuaded by materials; growing up starved has made him concerningly frugal, and he hoards any possible supplies for the dreaded future. While he has since learned control over his emotions, there are times when his frustrations get out of hand. His anger, when it boils over, is most often taken out on the nearest object, resulting in bloodied paws at the very best, though this is a rare relapse to his youth. He can be embarrassed over the slightest of personal flaws, becoming defensive as soon as he senses mockery. Most of the time, he can be relatively mellowed out, preferring to be a wallflower over anything else.

    His smarts have historically always been below average, leading to the correct assumption that he isn’t the sharpest knife in the kitchen drawer. While he learns new information slower than the average cat and procrastinates most of the time, he is still comparatively streetwise, as well as keen on passively perceiving his surroundings. He had to mature early due to his turbulent familylife and at times can seem far too harrowed for his age. He struggles with traumatizing memories and guilt of the past, frequently having night terrors or even flashbacks. He’s quietly afraid of any potential commitment to any person, though inwardly desperate for any affection he can get.

    Mannerisms: Smiles when he's nervous, bites the inside of his mouth.
    Interests: Dumpster diving, routine and repetition, comfortable silence with friends, playing in the snow (he would never admit it.)
    Fears: Loud noises, excessive blood, and screaming.

    A longhair black tabby tom with light green eyes. His glossy fur is primarily a warm charcoal black, fading into a dusty grey along his underside. Wavering tabby stripes decorate his flanks and legs in thick patterns, most prominently a spiral on both sides. His fur is long, wavy texture, though much shaggier in appearance than his brother, with a feathery plume of a tail. A smudge of reddish-brown is present on the top of his nose bridge. He has light yellow-green eyes, comparable to the skin of a pear in their color. His expression is often imbued with either concern or naivety, though he seems to manage a smile at even the worst of times. His whiskers are longer than average, twitching this way and that with alertness.

    He has taken on a lanky and lithe frame, with oriental cat features resulting in abnormally large ears and a sloping snout. While he still has softer features, he has grown into an athletic build practically designed for swimming. Still in the late stages of his youth, however, he is awkwardly gangly with broad paws and willowy limbs. As expected of a Riverclanner, he will be relatively attractive in cat terms when full-grown.

    Shellpaw, like anyone else his age who has yet to experience betrayal, is as naively trusting of anyone he interacts with.

    While his personality will develop as he does, his traits remain largely simple for the moment. He is as innocent as any other kit, with wide eyes curious about the nature around him. Although polite to others, he doesn't care much about socializing. Instead, he prefers to be alone, often wandering away for silence, no matter how brief it may be. He rarely speaks up for himself, and if he attempts, his thoughts are voiced in a mumble at most. He allows himself to be easily pushed around, fearing confrontation. If he has a breaking point, it would not be reached for a long time. He is shockingly empathetic, able to sense emotional tension with ease, oftentimes trying to assuage it too. Albeit not the best at comforting now for his age, he will grow into a reliable shoulder to cry on, a familiar face to laugh with, and a listening ear to speak with. He tries to see the silver lining in every bad situation, becoming an idealistic dreamer. He can be described as inattentive, often lost in his thoughts and letting his imagination run wild. This leads to the assumption of his overall laziness, though he does try to be helpful when it comes down to it. He is extremely loyal to his family, especially his parents, both of which he is practically attached at the ankles to. In any case of dissension among others, he is the first to act as a peacekeeper, as well as the one to push aside his own feelings in favor of comforting others.

    - initial appearance: naive, happy go lucky, optimistic all the time even if it hurts, empathetic to the point its a detriment to him, very emotionally sensitive/intuitive, it can be creepy how well he can actually read people like a book, fond of admiring nature
    - beneath the surface: prefers to be alone with his thoughts in peace, often wandering off, allows himself to be a pushover to avoid conflict, a daydreamer who blurs reality with the ideal, inattentive at best, lazy at worst
    - how he interacts with others: will still join small social circles, enjoys making people smile, will gladly comfort anyone at all, takes away their emotional weights or shares the burden, just an easily approachable guy, laughs off any insults, first to act as a peacekeeper
    - work ethic: practically no work ethic, would rather ignore it than shove chores onto someone else, inner depression = no motivation, anything he does is minimal effort when hes in the worst of a funk

    - even deeper: holds a large amount of guilt for his mothers death, still grieving his father who he was very attached to, clings to ravenpaw because hes all he has left, his patience can wear thin when pushed too far
    - positives or negatives if not mentioned: actually smart like his brother he just doesn't want to admit it. way too softspoken to be heard, but can see through hysteria to find out the truth
    - other: mleh

    Mannerisms: Tilts his head when he smiles, often found napping somewhere.
    Interests: Bird-watching or any type of nature-watching, swimming, basking in the sun.
    Fears: None yet.

    A cream point tom with mostly-white fur and light blue eyes. He is covered in velvety but short white fur that can never lay flat despite attempts to tame it, though it darkens into a faded cream color around his extremities, ears, back, and muzzle. Three thin stripes appear on the very tip of his tail, though difficult to discern without direct light. His fur, despite his name, has a difficult time retaining heat, which while beneficial in the hotter months, results in him shivering almost constantly during cold seasons. His eyes are a soft shade of blue, though any softness is overwhelmed by his constant scowl. One upper canine occasionally overhangs his lip, often when he frowns.

    Tall for a cat, especially a Windclanner, he balances on gangly thin legs more comparable to a set of stilts than anything else. He is lean and fit from the running required to hunt, with hardened paw pads and dulled claws. While mostly full grown, there is the potential for him to grow even taller, as well as widen out to match, though he will always retain a slim build.

    — No current scars.
